The Secret to Successful Crisis Management in the 21st Century - Melissa Agnes TEDx Talk

- Опубліковано 6 тра 2015
- There’s no denying it. Social media, the real-time news cycle and mobile technology have changed the landscape for crisis management. These changes include: heightened stakeholder expectations of two-way communication and transparency in a crisis; amplifying the speed at which organizations need to be prepared to respond and communicate in a crisis; the fact that it is becoming increasingly difficult for you to get ahead of the story and position your organization as the narrative of its own crisis.
But whether we like it or not, these are today’s crisis realities and successful crisis management depends on your team’s ability to manage these real-time challenges that the digital landscape presents, while simultaneously managing the actual crisis in real-time.
So then if these are today’s crisis realities, how can you arm your team with the skills, mindset and tools to make these realities and challenges work for your organization rather than against it? In other words, what is the secret to successful crisis management in this 21st century?
This is the topic of Melissa Agnes's TEDx Talk, which she delivered in LA in 2015. Within this 18 minute presentation, Melissa discusses the impacts that the digital landscape have on crisis management and provides THE secret to successful crisis management in this 21st century.

Thank Melissa, another great presentation, I have been watching it comprehend the skill.
Mumbling disinformation, repeating the dictums of one's own enslavement, what Melissa is doing, nothing Honorable or great about that.
Wonderful Trust Credibility and leadership.
Really great talk! Thank you for that! I am particular impressed about all the good examples you gave, especially the one with WhatsApp for the Ebola Crisis! Very interesting!
So glad you enjoyed it!
Great Talk.
Thanks a lot! It's gonna help me quite a lot for my Public Relations Exam...

This might be the most important interview of our lives! Great presentation!
Glad you enjoyed it, Berkant. Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks for sharing it has helped me in my current class about Crisis Management!!!
Great! Have showed it my Managing Reputation Risk Seminar@Bali...
I hope they enjoyed it - and are thinking about all the opportunities that come with being crisis ready.
helpful for my crisis communication class for my master's program at Regent University.
Very glad to hear that, Jami!
This is really help in our interview, because interviewer should ask Crisis management.....
I have listen to u first time, really this is very helpful for me while I'm facing interview....
Thank you Melisa! This is the 2nd time I've listened to your talk. It's so so good & inspiring. My Crisis Management course was creating a depressing tone in my world, but your enthusiasm, optimism & most importantly, leadership has given me motivation & a new perspective.
I'm so sorry that your course brought a depressing tone in your world, Michael. There is so much opportunity in being crisis ready, on so many levels, and I'm very glad to hear that this TEDx Talk helped bring you that perspective. It's not something to be afraid of, but rather something to get ahead of and use as a way to connect deeply with the humans that enable an organization to exist and thrive. If ever I can answer any questions or guide you to any other materials, please reach out.
Thanks Melissa for this video.. pardon me..you are so lovely
This is gold!
Very glad you think so, Lexi. Thank you!
Thanks much indeed Melissa that's an impressive presentation

Thanks, Al! Sure, you can share the link of the video or embed it within a post on LinkedIn, no problem. Thanks for wanting to share it!
Best,
Melissa
What is needed to get into crisis management? The way you explain it is amazing.
This article might help you -- especially the Q&A in the comments section: melissaagnes.com/wanna-be-crisis-management-professional-heres-what-you-should-know/
@@MelissaAgnes thanks. Google search results are such a mess now a days. Such an obvious article wont even pop up when I search. Thank you! Have a good week!
I know this is a old video but it is awesome!
I became interested in this because a famous youtuber I like is facing allegations. With millions of followers they still aren't handling it good enough.
Who's the UA-camr? I'm curious to go take a look...
It's really good to see you on TED stage. Really extraordinary.
So kind of you to say that, Abhishek Balani, thank you!
you are a waste of space
Great material, very well delivered!
Thank you Jacques Gravel!
You're hopelessly enslaved.
What an amazing talk,,,thanks alot
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the feedback :)
Are you LD? Oh okay I Apologize
Loved your talk, Melissa! Thank you for sharing it with your weekly newsletter readers!
So glad you enjoyed it, Theresa. Thanks for your kind words and for sharing it along!
Very nicely done Melissa
Thanks Daniel Noah! And thank you for the inspirational help :)
Go Fuck Yourself.
very interesting! tank you Melissa!
where can I find the article about the train accident?
Thanks, +Arik Ingber! The train accident is priviledged information, which is why I only discussed it at a very high-level and did not mention names. Sorry I can't be of more help in that regard.
Good talk. West Africa comprises of many countries; some of which did not experience the Ebola crisis. Might help to narrow down to the specific countries in your BBC anecdote.
Hi +Rose Wangechi, you're right that not all west African countries experienced the Ebola crisis. I'll aim to be more specific in the future. Though the point of the story is to share a brilliant proactive strategy for effect crisis comms. I hope that message wasn't lost in the lack of explicit detail. Thanks for weighing in!
Melissa, thanks so much for the gold mine of valuable information in this video and on your website. I am a worship pastor working on my doctoral degree and am currently taking a class on pastor care in grief, loss, and trauma. I have been tasked with writing a first hours action plan for my geographical area (Florida...hurricanes). Would your crisis ready model translate to this sort of endeavor, or would you suggest something else?
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad to hear this TEDx Talk served you. In response to your question, absolutely! The Crisis Ready Model is designed to serve this type of initiative (amongst others) and the book, "Crisis Ready: Building an Invincible Brand in an Uncertain World" will give you the roadmap and answers you're looking for. Let me know if you have any questions along the way, I'm always happy to help.
Best wishes in this important mission of yours!
Melissa
@@MelissaAgnes Thanks for your quick reply. I forgot that I was messaging on our church account. My name is Christopher Garrison, btw. Uncertain world perfectly describes our society today. I think your model easily translates into a hurricane preparedness model and beyond for non-profit organizations as well as for corporate and public safety applications. Thanks again.
@@FaithBaptistChurchTitusvilleFL It's great to virtually meet you, Christopher. You're absolutely right and the book is designed to support you through the entire process... plus, myself and the Crisis Ready Community (crisisreadycommunity.com) are here to support you, if ever that would be of help to you.
Dear Melissa,Thank you so much for the interesting TED talk! You mention the train accident at the beginning. Do you have more information about it like which train company, year etc. I am writing an essay about crisis management in the 21st century and would like to refer to that example. Your help would be really much appreciated!Many thanks,
Chris
Hi +Chris Pantke, thanks for the kind words and feedback. Unfortunately, I cannot divulge any further information regarding the train and the situation, as it is a client of mine. If I could have said more, I would have in the TEDx - though even though I was a little restricted, I still thought it was a relatable story that would reach people the way I wanted it to. Sorry I can't be of further help. Good luck with your article!
Hey Chris, how does it feel to sell your soul? ahh, i see you were never even awake enough to realize what you were doing, enjoy life as a slave, chasing the reward on a string
@@zacharyburell1747 that's a bit too dark don't you think . Why are you do rude ? What's the reason for coming out so rudely ?
Good talk more than that I lasted to the end mostly because of her good physical slim body.
Could you do a video on cancel culture? And how it has influenced your work?
After I saw the Carson charity being canceled and shut down. I really felt like this was the beginning of something horrible. Is it manageable with planning? Or are the risks so random it isn't?
The risks aren't random. They're entirely foreseeable. You're not the first person to bring this up so yes, absolutely, I will do a video on this in the coming days. Stay tuned. (And I encourage you to subscribe so you don't miss it ;) )
good
lol
How did you become a crisis manager?
+Avery Michael Great question... long (but interesting) answer! Feel free to hear the story here: melissaagnes.com/interview-on-the-business-success-factory-show/
FATHI MEDOS FES AZIZA 1 SAID THANK YOU SO MUCH
Ok laek awak
Can you talk to our crisis management class in massachusetts? Via skype etc
Happy to discuss it with you. Send me an email at melissa @ melissaagnes.com.
Covid-19 stress brought me here
I'm sorry to hear you're stressed, Fabio. You certainly aren't alone and I hope the video was able to give you some form of solace.
Si toi aussi t'es là pour l'exam d'anglais tape dans tes mains ♪♫
Hello makoto
this is really dark. crisis management employees have sold their souls.
Ending The Century of Public Relations is one of my life's major purposes.
What do mean
Wow good looking and shes smart!?
she's not smart, she's indoctrinated to be a good little slave.
your statement on ebola was one out of ignorance.... you did good though but you got that wrong
I think this is utter drivel. It's not telling me anything that I couldn't pick up from reading newspapers. It's slickly packaged but what experience of actual crisis does this lady have? Combat, fire-fighting, emergency service response?
melissaagnes.com/about-melissa-agnes-keynote-speaker/
did anyone else watch this on mute
Franklin Hicks curious to know what that means? What was the experience on mute?
Melissa Agnes use your imagination sweetheart
How did you become a crisis manager ?
Hi Ahlam, that's a great story and a fun story, though a little long for me to answer here! I do share the story in my book ("Crisis Ready: Building an Invincible Brand in an Uncertain World") and in a bunch of podcast interviews that you can find here: melissaagnes.com/press/ I hope this helps!
